Individual Counseling with Resident Therapists

**WE ARE CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS!!**

The properties of light offers individual counseling services for folks of all ages. Resident & licensed therapists providing services here work with folks of all ages and identities, and have a focus on joining and supporting queer, trans, non-binary, and gender expansive youth, as well as neurodivergent & LGBTQIA+ adults in navigating the path to self-knowledge, acceptance and radical self-love. Our approach to working with youth is client-led and family-collaborative - in individual counseling sessions we offer opportunities for exploration and healing through communication, art, and sensory + imaginative play. We also offer counseling services (and access to the art supplies, fidgets and toys!) for neurodivergent & LGBTQIA+ adults.

Resident therapists who provide individual counseling services receive training and clinical supervision from Rachel Boggan, LCSW and Camille Rudney, LCSW - for more information about our therapists, please send us an inquiry!

  • Ruby (they/them)

    Resident Therapist/Supervisee in Social Work

    As a nonbinary, neurodivergent therapist, Ruby works with clients of all ages to help them feel empowered to seek support, accommodations, and solutions that work with their unique identities and neurotypes. Ruby firmly believes that their role as a social worker does not begin and end in the therapy office, and they aim to recognize and unpack the effects of systemic oppression (racism, capitalism, ableism, etc.) on their clients, their community, and the field of social work itself.

  • Emmin (they/them)

    Resident Therapist/Supervisee in Social Work

    Emmin uses a variety of sensory, creative and playful approaches to working with clients of all ages virtually, including using art, movement, storytelling, and gaming. Working with many clients with interest-focused nervous systems, Emmin also takes a collaborative approach to incorporating client interests and passions into their work together!

  • Sarah (she/her or they/them)

    Resident Therapist/Supervisee in Social Work

    Sarah blends her clinical background with the lived realities of existing and parenting as a neurodivergent person to offer affirming, non-pathologizing support as clients explore their doubts, fears, and strengths. Sarah specializes in supporting neurodivergent parents, caretakers of neurodivergent youth, late-identified neurodivergent adults, those carrying the weight of trauma, and anyone not fully heard or served by past mental health care.
